What is Supreme Court Ruling on Political Detention about?

The Supreme Court of the Philippines ruled on the case of Go Tian Sek Santos, a Chinese citizen detained as a political prisoner, asserting that his detention is legal under Commonwealth Act No. 682 due to allegations of espionage. The court found that his foreign status does not exempt him from prosecution for crimes against national security. The petition for his release was denied, with costs, although there was a dissenting opinion regarding the lack of due process in his detention.
